Features and Functions of Bacteria Associated with Phytoplankton Blooms REVIEWS Master recyclers: features and functions of bacteria associated with phytoplankton blooms Alison Buchan1, Gary R. LeCleir1, Christopher A. Gulvik2 and José M. González3 Abstract | Marine phytoplankton blooms are annual spring events that sustain active and diverse bloom-associated bacterial populations. Blooms vary considerably in terms of eukaryotic species composition and environmental conditions, but a limited number of heterotrophic bacterial lineages — primarily members of the Flavobacteriia, Alphaproteo- bacteria and Gammaproteobacteria — dominate these communities. In this Review, we discuss the central role that these bacteria have in transforming phytoplankton-derived organic matter and thus in biogeochemical nutrient cycling. On the basis of selected field and laboratory-based studies of flavobacteria and roseobacters, distinct metabolic strategies are emerging for these archetypal phytoplankton-associated taxa, which provide insights into the underlying mechanisms that dictate their behaviours during blooms.

    ICES Marine Science Symposia, 215: 221-21)6. 2002 Understanding the role of turbulence on fisheries production during the first century of ICES Brian R. MacKenzie MacKenzie, B. R. 2002. Understanding the role of turbulence on fisheries production during the first century of ICES. - ICES Marine Science Symposia, 215: 227-236. Since its inception, ICES has been concerned with the effect of hydrography on the abundance and distribution of fish and fish catches. One of the earliest and most sig­ nificant oceanographic findings made by the ICES community was the influence of vertical mixing and turbulence on seasonal plankton production processes. This dis­ covery, acquired over several decades of investigation, led to three major theories of fish population regulation and demonstrates the underlying impact that turbulence has on seasonal plankton and fish production. More recently, moderate levels of turbu­ lence and upwelling have been shown to produce the highest recruitment among clu- peid populations inhabiting major upwelling areas. The mechanism responsible for this pattern is a balance between the positive and negative effects of both turbulence and upwelling on plankton production, larval feeding, and advective processes. In one ICES upwelling zone (Bay of Biscay), recruitment of a local clupeid is related to some of these processes. This knowledge is contributing to the ICES assessment process for this stock. Frontal zones on continental shelves within the ICES Area are also moder­ ately turbulent environments, may also have an impact on fish recruitment, and have received particular attention by colleagues within the ICES community. In future, an understanding of how turbulence affects fish and plankton production at upwelling and frontal zones and during storms could help justify including additional environ­ mental and ecosystem information in recruitment and catch prediction models.

Hansen Netherlands Institute for Sea Research; PO Box 59, 1790 AB Den Burg, The Netherlands ABSTRACT: Mesozooplankton grazing on Phaeocystis cf. globosa was investigated by laboratory and field studies. Tests on 18 different species by means of laboratory incubation experiments, carried out at the Biologische Anstalt Helgotand, revealed that Phaeocystis was ingested by 5 meroplanktonic and 6 holoplanktonic species; filtering and ingestion rates of the latter were determined. Among copepods, the highest feeding rates were found for Calanus helgolandicus and Temora longicornis. Copepods fed on all size-classes of Phaeocystis offered (generally 4-500 [~m equivalent spherical diameter [ESD]), but they preferred the colonies. Female C. helgolandicus and female 7". longicornis preferably fed on larger colonies (ESD > 200 [~m and ESD > 100 gm, respec- tively. However. a field study, carried out in the Marsdiep ~Dutch Wadden Seal showed phytoplank. ton grazing by the dominant copepod -femora longicorms to be negligible during the Phaeocysti, spring bloom. T longicornis gut fluorescence was inversely related to Phaeocystis dominance. Th~ hypothesis has been put forward that 7". 1ongicornis preferentially feeds on microzooplankton and b) this may enhance rather than depress Phaeocystis blooms. Results from laboratory incubatioc experiments, including three trophic levels - Phaeocystis cf globosa (algael.

Using laboratory incubations, a quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis of N2O reductase (nosZ) and ammonia monooxygenase subunit A (amoA) genes, and a metagenome analysis based on the nosZ gene, we investigated the abundance of N2O-reducing microorganisms and ammonia-oxidizing prokaryotes as well as the community compositions of N2O-reducing microorganisms in in situ and cultivated sediments in the non-eelgrass and eelgrass zones of Lake Akkeshi, Japan. Laboratory incubations showed that N2O was reduced by eelgrass sediments and emitted by non-eelgrass sediments. qPCR analyses revealed that the abundance of nosZ gene clade II in both sediments before and after the incubation as higher in the eelgrass zone than in the non-eelgrass zone. In contrast, the abundance of ammonia-oxidizing archaeal amoA genes increased after incubations in the non-eelgrass zone only. Metagenome analyses of nosZ genes revealed that the lineages Dechloromonas-Magnetospirillum-Thiocapsa and Bacteroidetes (Flavobacteriia) within nosZ gene clade II were the main populations in the N2O-reducing microbiome in the in situ sediments of eelgrass zones.

C. bovis is a member of the Flavobacteriaceae, a family within the phylum Bacteroidetes. It was isolated when psychrotolerant bacterial communities in raw milk and their proteolytic and lipolytic traits were studied. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the draft genome sequence and annotation. The DNA G + C content is 38.19%. The chromosome length is 3,346,045 bp. It encodes 3236 proteins and 105 RNA genes. The C. bovis genome is part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Type Strains, Phase I: the one thousand microbial genomes study.

These files contain GenBank supported in our phylogenetic analysis of the Clostridium species in the HGMI pipeline. We thus designated these Clostridium records for the ENV database, a component of the nonredun- species, along with the species from other named genera that dant nucleotide database (nt) where 16S rRNA environmental cluster with them in bootstrap supported nodes, as being within survey data are deposited. GenBank records for hits with Ͼ98% these clusters. sequence identity over 400 bp to the 16S rRNA sequence of each of the 67 genomes were parsed to get a list of study titles Annotation of GTs and GHs.
